Fibrin-associated large B-cell lymphoma arising in an endovascular graft: first case report in Korea.

Fibrin-associated large B-cell lymphoma (FA-LBCL) is an extremely rare subtype of LBCL that consists of microscopic aggregates of atypical large B cells in the background of fibrin. Here, we report the first case of FA-LBCL in Korea. A 57-year-old male presented with a large amount of thrombus in the thoracic aorta during follow-up for graft replacement of the thoracoabdominal aorta 8 years prior. The removed thrombus, measuring 4.3 × 3.1 cm, histologically exhibited eosinophilic fibrinous material with several small clusters of atypical lymphoid cells at the periphery. The atypical cells were positive for CD20 by immunohistochemistry and for Epstein-Barr virus by in situ hybridization. The Ki-67 proliferation rate was 85%. The patient was still alive with no recurrence at the 7-year follow-up after thrombectomy. Although the diagnosis can be very difficult and challenging due to its paucicellular features, pathologists should be aware of FALBCL, which has likely been underestimated in routine evaluations of thrombi.

Vulvar Basal Cell Carcinoma in Postmenopausal Women: Two Case Reports.

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a major non-melanoma skin cancer, and its incidence is increasing worldwide. Although the main etiology is sun exposure, BCC may develop in sun-protected areas such as the vulva. The sonic hedgehog signaling pathway mutation may explain the mechanism underlying the occurrence of vulvar BCC. Owing to the rarity of metastases, wide local excision is an appropriate treatment option. Here, we report the cases two postmenopausal women with vulvar BCC who were surgically treated.

Dickkopf 4 Alone and in Combination with Leucyl-tRNA Synthetase as a Good Prognostic Biomarker for Human Colorectal Cancer.

The prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) is affected by invasion and metastasis. Leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LARS) was shown to be related to the growth and migration of lung cancer cells. Dickkopf 4 (DKK4) is known as a Wnt/ß-catenin pathway inhibitor, and its upregulation was reported in several cancers. However, the clinical significance of LARS and DKK4 in human CRC has not been clearly defined. We investigated the expression of LARS and DKK4 by immunohistochemical staining in tissue microarrays from 642 primary CRC patients and analyzed the relationship between their expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of CRC patients. LARS and DKK4 expressions were not related to gender, age at surgery, histologic grade, size, tumor location, tumor invasion, or metastasis, but LARS expression was significantly correlated with TNM stage, N stage, and lymph node metastasis. DKK4 expression was inversely related to the TNM stage and N stage. Survival analysis demonstrated that the OS and DFS in the LARS high expression group were not different compared to the LARS low expression group. OS and DFS in the DKK4 high expression group were significantly higher than in the DKK4 low expression group. In addition, OS and DFS in the group with the combination of the LARS high/DKK4 low expression were significantly lower than in the LARS high/DKK4 high expression group. The low expression of DKK4 alone can be used as a predictor of relapse in CRC patients. In addition, DKK4 low expression in the case of LARS high expression can be used as a poor prognostic factor in CRC patients. Thus, our findings suggest that DKK4 alone or in combination with LARS at diagnosis may be a useful prognostic factor for CRC.

Acute Eosinophilic Pneumonia after Combined Use of Conventional and Heat-Not-Burn Cigarettes: A Case Report.

Background: Acute eosinophilic pneumonia (AEP) is a rare acute respiratory disease accompanied by fever, shortness of breath, and cough. Although the pathogenesis of the disease is not yet established, the patient's condition improves with a rapid therapeutic response to systemic corticosteroids. Conventional cigarettes or heat-not-burn cigarettes are the most common cause of AEP among young people. Case Presentation: A 22-year-old woman with dyspnea, cough, and fever did not improve after visiting the local medical center and was admitted to the emergency room. The patient denied having any recent travel history or insect bites. She was treated with appropriate antibiotics according to the community acquired pneumonia, but there was no improvement. Chest radiography showed bilateral patches of pulmonary infiltration, and chest computed tomography revealed bilateral multifocal patchy consolidations with multiple small nodular ground-glass opacities and interlobular septal thickening. The bronchoalveolar lavage result was dominantly eosinophilic. The patient's condition improved rapidly after the use of intravenous methylprednisolone and then a change to oral methylprednisolone. Finally, the patient was hospitalized for 9 days, and the duration of use of methylprednisolone including outpatient visits was 14 days. Results: The early treatment of AEP yields a good prognosis, but since the symptoms of AEP are similar to those of infectious diseases such as community-acquired pneumonia, physicians should be meticulous in differentiating AEP from other diseases. Conclusions: Since AEP shows a good response to steroids, early detection using an appropriate diagnostic method is recommended. In addition, there should be strong education against smoking in any form.

High expression of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase p11γ isoform can predict poor prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer.

The protein p110γ is an isoform of the catalytic subunit of class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks). PI3Ks are involved in the regulation of cell survival, growth, proliferation, and migration and have been implicated in the oncogenesis of various cancers. In this study, p110γ expression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its association with clinicopathological factors and patient survival were evaluated. A total of 230 NSCLC tumors were immunohistochemically stained for p110γ. Of these, 174 (75.7%) and 56 (24.3%) were placed in the low and high expression groups, respectively. The positive rate of p110γ was significantly higher in adenocarcinoma than in squamous cell carcinoma (p⟨0.001). Advanced stage NSCLCs showed higher p110γ expression than those at an early stage (p=0.002). Irrespective of the histological tumor type, the patients with high p110γ expression had significantly worse overall survival than those with low p110γ expression (p=0.004). p110γ expression was an independent poor prognostic factor in the multivariate analysis. Our results suggest that p110γ may be involved in the development and progression of NSCLC, and that p110γ has promising potential as a prognostic factor or novel therapeutic target for NSCLC.

POU2F3 in SCLC: Clinicopathologic and Genomic Analysis With a Focus on Its Diagnostic Utility in Neuroendocrine-Low SCLC.

INTRODUCTION: POU2F3 is a recent marker of a small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) subtype related to chemosensory tuft cells (SCLC-P). The characteristics of SCLC-P have not been fully defined, and the data on POU2F3 expression in other lung tumors are scarce. METHODS: We screened 254 SCLC for POU2F3 expression and comprehensively analyzed histopathologic, genomic, and clinical characteristics of POU2F3-positive tumors. We also explored POU2F3 expression in other major lung cancer types (n = 433) and a targeted set of potential diagnostic mimics of SCLC (n = 123). RESULTS: POU2F3 was expressed in 30 of 254 (12%) SCLC and was strongly associated with low expression of standard neuroendocrine markers (synaptophysin, chromogranin A, CD56, INSM1). Notably, POU2F3 was expressed in 75% of SCLC with entirely negative or minimal neuroendocrine marker expression (15/20) and was helpful in supporting the diagnosis of SCLC in such cases. Broad targeted next-generation sequencing revealed that SCLC-P (n = 12) exhibited enrichment in several alterations, including PTEN inactivation, MYC amplifications, and 20q13 amplifications, but similar rates of RB1 and TP53 alterations as other SCLC (n = 155). Beyond SCLC, POU2F3 expression was exclusively limited to large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (12%) and basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (22%). CONCLUSIONS: This is the largest cohort of SCLC-P clinical samples to date, where we describe the diagnostic utility of POU2F3 in a challenging subset of SCLC with low or absent expression of standard neuroendocrine markers. The distinct genomic alterations in SCLC-P may offer a novel avenue for therapeutic targeting. The role of POU2F3 in a narrow subset of other lung cancer types warrants further study.

Non-Small Cell Carcinoma-Not Otherwise Specified on Cytology Specimens in Patients with Solitary Pulmonary Lesion: Primary Lung Cancer or Metastatic Cancer?

CONTEXT: Subtyping of solitary pulmonary lesion (SPL) in small amount of cytology specimen using a limited panel of immunohistochemistry (IHC) markers is very important to the correct choice of treatment. This study was performed to categorize non-small cell carcinoma-not otherwise specified (NSCC-NOS) on cytology in patients with SPL, especially with regard to the incidence of metastatic cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed 91 cases, in which a precise morphology-based, lineage-specific IHC-aided subtyping was not possible, that qualified as NSCC-NOS on cytology. A stepwise clinical approach and IHC of organ-specific markers was performed on each cell block (CB) to exclude metastasis from extrapulmonary malignancies. RESULTS: Of the 91 evaluated cases, 65 (71.4%) were diagnosed as non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC)-NOS, 24 (26.4%) were metastatic cancer, and the remaining 2 (2.2%) had undetermined diagnoses. The most frequent primary tumor site was the colorectum (41.7%), followed by breast (20.8%), kidney (8.3%), and then stomach, duodenum, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, prostate, and skin (4.2% each, 1 of 24). Moreover, we found that 7 of the 24 patients with metastatic cancer had a history of extrapulmonary malignancy that was unknown at the time of cytology-based diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: These results underscored the need for accurate and stepwise clinical correlation to rule out the possibility of pulmonary metastasis from other sites and appropriate but judicious IHC (i.e., CDX2) on CB for SPL to increase refinement of the cytology diagnosis of NSCC-NOS.

Silicone-induced lymphadenopathy mimicking recurrence of breast cancer on positron emission tomography-computed tomography, correctly diagnosed on ultrasound.

Silicone-induced lymphadenopathy is a rare complication associated with silicone breast implants. It is usually asymptomatic and found incidentally during imaging. We report a case of silicone lymphadenopathy in a patient who had undergone a mastectomy and breast reconstruction for breast cancer. During follow-up, a positron emission tomography-computed tomography examination revealed lymph nodes that were suspicious for cancer recurrence. However, sonography was able to correctly diagnose silicone-induced lymphadenopathy and exclude cancer metastasis.

Fibrinolysis with Lower Dose Urokinase in Patients with Complicated Parapneumonic Effusion.

BACKGROUND: Intrapleural urokinase is one of the most widely used fibrinolytic agents in the treatment of complicated parapneumonic effusion (CPPE). However, little research has been performed on the optimal urokinase dosage. The aim of this study was to evaluate the treatment efficacy of half dose urokinase compared with conventional dose urokinase. METHODS: We retrospectively enrolled 92 patients with CPPE or empyema who underwent intrapleural urokinase treatment at two tertiary hospitals. Patients received antibiotics, chest tube drainage, and other treatments as part of routine care. The primary outcome was the treatment success rate in the half dose urokinase group (50,000 IU daily for maximal 6 days) and the conventional dose urokinase group (100,000 IU daily). Treatment success was defined as clinical and radiological improvements without surgical treatment or re-admission within one month. RESULTS: Forty-four patients received half dose urokinase, whereas 48 patients were treated with conventional dose urokinase. Both groups were relatively well matched at baseline, excluding higher serum white blood cell count and higher empyema prevalence in the half dose urokinase group. The treatment success rate was not different between the two groups (p=0.048). There were no differences in the rate of in-hospital death and surgical treatment, hospitalization duration, and indwelling catheter duration. In the multivariate analysis, urokinase dose was not a predictor of treatment success. CONCLUSION: Half dose intrapleural urokinase is equally effective conventional dose urokinase in treating patients with CPPE or empyema.

rhEGF Treatment Improves EGFR Inhibitor-Induced Skin Barrier and Immune Defects.

The mechanisms of epidermal growth factor (EGF) affecting EGF receptor inhibitor (EGFRI)-related skin toxicities are as yet unknown. We investigated which mechanisms are involved in EGF's positive effects. Two types of EGFRIs, cetuximab and gefitinib, were used to treat the cells or 3d-cultured human skin tissue with recombinant human EGF (rhEGF). As a result, rhEGF increased EGFR and pEGFR expression. Furthermore, rhEGF induces EGFR signaling by pAKT and pPI3K expression in gefitinib and rhEGF co-treated cells. In addition, rhEGF bound to EGFR after than cetuximab, but cetuximab bound to EGFR more strongly than rhEGF. Moreover, expressions of proliferation and differentiation proteins, both ki-67 and filaggrin, were decreased in EGFRI-treated tissue. However, in rhEGF and EGFRI co-treated tissue, those expressions were increased. Expression of IL-1α, IL-8, and TNF-α was increased by EGFRIs and down-regulated by rhEGF. Furthermore, hBD-2 and hBD-3 protein expressions were inhibited by cetuximab or gefitinib treatment, and those decrements were increased by rhEGF treatment. In patients' tissue evaluation, compared with controls, patients' Ki-67 and EGFR expression were decreased (p = 0.015, p = 0.001). Patients' IL-17 and TNF-α expression intensity was higher than that of the control group (p = 0.038, p = 0.037). After treatment with EGF ointment, average values of Ki-67, EGFR, and Melan-A were changed to normal values. Oppositely, patients' proportions of IL-17 and TNF-α were decreased to low stain level. In conclusion, treatment of rhEGF improved EGFRI-induced skin eruption via normalizing the proliferation and differentiation of keratinocytes, reducing inflammatory cytokines by the affected EGFRIs.

Correlation of epidermal growth factor receptor mutation status in plasma and tissue samples of patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

BACKGROUND: Somatic mutations of the gene encoding epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are detected in approximately 30%-50% of patients with non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC), so detection of EGFR mutation is the pivotal step of treatment in patients with advanced NSCLC. However, difficulty in obtaining sufficient tissue and bias from the heterogeneity of the tumor samples are the major obstacles. Although analyzing EGFR with circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in plasma is a breakthrough, accuracy is the problem in variable methods. Peptide nucleic acid (PNA) clamping-assisted fluorescence melting curve analysis (PANAMutyper®) is a novel and highly sensitive method of detecting EGFR mutation in tumor tissues. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: This study was designed to evaluate PANAMutyper® for detecting EGFR mutation with ctDNA of patients with lung cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: EGFR mutation status detected by PNA clamp with tissue samples and by PANAMutyper® with ctDNA was compared. Tissue biopsy was done in 158 patients with lung tumor, in which 23 cases were excluded and 135 cases were enrolled. EGFR mutation rate was 23.0% (31/135) in overall patients. All the plasma samples of the cases with mutant EGFR in tissue samples were verified by an already known highly sensitive method of droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR). RESULTS: The concordance rate of tissue and plasma samples was 91.9% (124/135). The sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value were 64.5%, 100%, 90.4%, and 100%, respectively, according to the tissue samples as a standard. PANAMutyper® method was not inferior to ddPCR for the detection of EGFR mutation including T790M with ctDNA. These results suggest that the detection of EGFR mutation status using ctDNA in plasma by PANAMutyper® is a feasible test prior to tissue biopsy.

Prognostic significance of glucose-related protein 94 in colorectal cancer.

AIMS: The expression of glucose-related protein 94 (GRP94), a member of the heat shock protein 90 family, was correlated with a variety of clinicopathological factors and patient survival in a large colorectal cancer (CRC) cohort. We aimed to elucidate the role of GRP94 in the prognosis of CRC patients. METHODS: Tissue microarray blocks were generated from 709 CRC samples and immunohistochemically stained for GRP94. RESULTS: Of the 709 tumours, 164 (23.1%) and 545 (76.9%) were classified in the low and high expression groups, respectively. GRP94 expression was high in CRC cases with larger tumours (p =  0.005) and advanced pT stage (p =  0.021). GRP94 expression was higher in females than males (p =  0.024). In univariate and multivariate survival analyses, high GRP94 expression was unexpectedly associated with better overall survival in CRC patients younger than 65 years of age (p =  0.001) CONCLUSION: Our conflicting results indicate that GRP94 has the ability to switch between oncogenic and tumour-suppressive roles depending on the conditions and microenvironment of the tumour cells. Furthermore, GRP94 could be a candidate biomarker to predict better prognosis in CRC patients.

Utility of Human Papillomavirus Testing for Cervical Cancer Screening in Korea.

(1) Background: Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in Korean women. This study was performed to discover the utility of HPV (Human Papillomavirus) testing in screening of cervical lesions and to provide the prevalence of HPV and the genotype distribution in a single center of Korea. (2) Methods: A total of 15,141 women who underwent both HPV testing and cervical cytology were enrolled in this retrospective medical record review study. (3) Results: HPV testing showed higher sensitivity than cytology for the detection of histological high-grade squamous lesions. Furthermore, the sensitivity and specificity of HPV testing varied depending on the method used. The BD Onclarity™ HPV assay had higher sensitivity (90%) than the MyHPV CHIP™ kit (all types of HPV: 82%; high-risk HPV: 76%) for high-grade squamous lesions. A combination of MyHPV CHIP™ and cytology detected 90.9% (30/33) of histological high-grade squamous lesions. A combination of BD Onclarity™ HPV assay and cytology detected 96.55% (84/87) of histological high-grade squamous lesions. In addition, HPV prevalence and genotype distribution were different depending on the HPV testing method used. (4) Conclusion: HPV testing showed higher sensitivity than cytology, but the sensitivity and specificity of HPV testing had variation depending on the method used.

Ultrasonography of Malignant Clear Cell Hidradenoma: A Case Report.

Clear cell hidradenoma is a tumor that originates from a sweat gland and typically involves the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. Malignant clear cell hidradenoma is very rare, and surgical excision is usually performed without imaging. There are few reports of the ultrasonographic findings of malignant clear cell hidradenomas. Herein, we present the ultrasonographic characteristics of a malignant clear cell hidradenoma.

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Epidermal Growth Factor Ointment for Treating Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitor-Induced Skin Toxicities.

BACKGROUND: The efficacy of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) inhibitors in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), pancreatic cancer (PC), or colorectal cancer (CRC) has been demonstrated. However, dermatological reactions to these inhibitors can cause significant physical and psychosocial discomfort. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of EGF ointment for EGFR inhibitor-related skin adverse events (ERSEs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter, pilot phase III trial enrolled patients with NSCLC, PC, or CRC treated with EGFR inhibitors. Patients with grade ≥2 ERSEs were included. Patients were randomized to three treatment arms: arm 1, placebo; arm 2, 1 ppm of EGF ointment; and arm 3, 20 ppm of EGF ointment. Patients applied ointment to their skin lesions twice daily. RESULTS: Efficacy evaluation was available for 80 patients (9 for PC, 28 for NSCLC, and 43 for CRC). Responses were 44.4% in arm 1, 61.5% in arm 2, and 77.8% in arm 3. There was a linear correlation between EGF concentrations and responses (p = .012). Quality of life (QoL) was assessed for 74 patients. Maximum changes in composite scores by Skindex-16 after treatment were significantly different among arms (mean ± SD: -5.2 ± 8.6 for arm 1, -11.7 ± 14.2 for arm 2, and - 18.6 ± 17.7 for arm 3; p = .008). EGF arms showed significant improvement in emotions (p = .005) and functioning (p = .044) scores over the placebo arm. CONCLUSION: EGF ointment is effective for managing ERSEs. It can also improve patients' QoL compared with placebo. Clinical trial identification number. NCT02284139 IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Patients with non-small cell lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, or colorectal cancer who are treated with epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) inhibitors may experience dermatologic reactions to their treatment. This study investigated the benefit of an EGF ointment in the treatment of these adverse events and observed the ointment to be effective in managing EGFR inhibitor-related skin adverse events.

Postoperative Muscle Migration Through Stretched Scar Formation After Superior Rectus Muscle Nonscleral Sutured Resection in Rabbit Eyes.

PURPOSE: To determine whether suturing to the residual muscle stump induces postoperative muscle migration after superior rectus muscle (SRM) resection in rabbit eyes. METHODS: Twenty-four eyes in 12 rabbits were randomly divided into two groups. Each group underwent a 3-mm SRM resection. The muscle stump was not removed in one randomly assigned eye in each rabbit and the resected muscle was sutured to the residual muscle stump (residual muscle stump group). In the other eye, the muscle stump was completely removed and the resected muscle was sutured to the original insertion site (control group). At postoperative weeks 1, 2, and 4, the distances between the most anterior aspect of the reattached muscle and the corneal limbus were measured. Histopathologic differences at the new attachment sites were assessed between the two groups at postoperative week 4. RESULTS: The mean distance between the corneal limbus and SRM was 2.97 ± 1.00 mm in the residual muscle stump group and 1.99 ± 0.40 mm in the control group at postoperative week 2 (P = .026) and 3.14 ± 0.78 mm in the residual muscle stump group and 1.81 ± 0.44 mm in the control group at postoperative week 4 (P = .002). Connective tissue, fibrosis, and myofibroblast proliferation in the front of the SRM were identified based on histopathologic findings. CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative loosening associated with a stretched scar frequently occurred in cases with suturing to the residual muscle during rectus muscle resection and could result from fibrosis and connective tissue proliferation in front of the rectus muscle.

Cell-blocks are suitable material for programmed cell death ligand-1 immunohistochemistry: Comparison of cell-blocks and matched surgical resection specimens in lung cancer.

OBJECTIVE: Programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) has emerged as a predictive biomarker in lung cancer. PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay predicts the response to immunotherapy, but cytology specimens are often the only samples available in a considerable proportion of advanced lung cancer patients. We delineate practical feasibility and efficacy of cytology cell-block (CB) specimens for PD-L1 expression and concordance between cytology CBs and surgical resection specimens. METHODS: In total, 58 eligible patients with primary lung cancer who received computed tomography-guided percutaneous needle aspiration and surgery were included. PD-L1 IHC (clone SP263) was performed on CBs prepared from residual liquid-based cytology material and matched surgical resection specimens. PD-L1 positive tumour cell proportion was categorised in four score groups: (a) <1%; (b) ≤1% to <10%; (c) ≤10% to <50%, (d) ≥50%. RESULTS: Comparison of PD-L1 expression in cytology CBs and matched surgical resection specimens showed a high concordance (κ value 0.65). According to the therapeutic guideline of immunotherapeutic agents, a positive percent agreement was 94.34%, and a negative percent agreement was 100% at a cut-off value for positivity of 1% PD-L1 expression. There was a significant difference observed with regard to rates of PD-L1 positivity when comparing smoking history (P = 0.02), age (P = 0.04) and pathological TNM stage (P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS: The results show that cytology CBs evaluated for PD-L1 IHC assay have high concordance with matched surgical resection specimens and can be used for assessing PD-L1 expression. Also, we propose that CBs are suitable materials for evaluating PD-L1 expression while simultaneously performing both diagnostic and molecular tests.

Abdominal actinomycosis misconceived as intestinal lymphoma: Report of a case.

INTRODUCTION: Abdominal actinomycosis is a rare clinical entity and it is difficult to make the correct preoperative diagnosis because of its nonspecific clinical symptoms and varied radiological findings. The diagnosis is usually made after the patient undergoes an operation and tissue is available for pathological evaluation. When the diagnosis is made, the patient should be treated with the appropriate long-term antibiotics. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 69-year-old male patient was transferred to our hospital complaining of a palpable mass, painful abdominal discomfort, weight loss, and night sweating. After colonoscopy and radiologic studies, our presumptive diagnosis was intestinal lymphoma combined with ileocecal intussusception. He was found to have abdominal actinomycosis after surgery and successfully treated with ampicillin for six months. DISCUSSION: Pre-operative radiological imaging in abdominal actinomycosis is unlikely to allow a definitive diagnosis, but CT scanning is the single most useful imaging modality. Although we performed preoperative radiological studies, including CT, none led to a diagnosis of abdominal actinomycosis, we mistakenly considered the case as intestinal lymphoma combined with ileocecal intussusception. CONCLUSION: Physicians should include abdominal actinomycosis in the differential diagnosis when an abdominal mass presents an irregular, infiltrative growth pattern, even though ileocecal intussusception is an extremely rare presentation in abdominal actinomycosis.
